In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8712: fix a potential memory leak in r871xu_drv_init()
In r871xu_drv_init(), if r8712_init_drv_sw() fails, then the memory
allocated by r8712_alloc_io_queue() in r8712_usb_dvobj_init() is not
properly released as there is no action will be performed by
r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit().
To properly release it, we should call r8712_free_io_queue() in
r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit().
Besides, in r871xu_dev_remove(), r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() will be called
by r871x_dev_unload() under condition `padapter->bup` and
r8712_free_io_queue() is called by r8712_free_drv_sw().
However, r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() does not rely on `padapter->bup` and
calling r8712_free_io_queue() in r8712_free_drv_sw() is negative for
better understading the code.
So I move r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() into r871xu_dev_remove(), and remove
r8712_free_io_queue() from r8712_free_drv_sw().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc2: gadget: don't reset gadget's driver->bus
UDC driver should not touch gadget's driver internals, especially it
should not reset driver->bus. This wasn't harmful so far, but since
commit fc274c1e9973 ("USB: gadget: Add a new bus for gadgets") gadget
subsystem got it's own bus and messing with ->bus triggers the
following NULL pointer dereference:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: fix race between nbd_alloc_config() and module removal
When nbd module is being removing, nbd_alloc_config() may be
called concurrently by nbd_genl_connect(), although try_module_get()
will return false, but nbd_alloc_config() doesn't handle it.
The race may lead to the leak of nbd_config and its related
resources (e.g, recv_workq) and oops in nbd_read_stat() due
to the unload of nbd module as shown below:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000040

ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30
Fixing it by checking the return value of try_module_get()
in nbd_alloc_config(). As nbd_alloc_config() may return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV),
assign nbd->config only when nbd_alloc_config() succeeds to ensure
the value of nbd->config is binary (valid or NULL).
Also adding a debug message to check the reference counter
of nbd_config during module removal.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent prealloc proc writes
We have no protection against concurrent PCM buffer preallocation
changes via proc files, and it may potentially lead to UAF or some
weird problem. This patch applies the PCM open_mutex to the proc
write operation for avoiding the racy proc writes and the PCM stream
open (and further operations).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent hw_params and hw_free calls
Currently we have neither proper check nor protection against the
concurrent calls of PCM hw_params and hw_free ioctls, which may result
in a UAF. Since the existing PCM stream lock can't be used for
protecting the whole ioctl operations, we need a new mutex to protect
those racy calls.
This patch introduced a new mutex, runtime->buffer_mutex, and applies
it to both hw_params and hw_free ioctl code paths. Along with it, the
both functions are slightly modified (the mmap_count check is moved
into the state-check block) for code simplicity.
